Former Self Portrait

Someone got lost taking a bad dose again
I wasn't there
I don't know how it happened
But I'm certain that this life isn't for me

I need something in between
Give me something in between

Glass and paper
The lighters spark
Say you drop the needle
And you choose to go and get high

I'm at a loss
Repressing old issues and files
I'll spare some change to change my perspective

Now I'm somewhere in between
Give me something in between

Canvas and dagger
I'll leave a mark
Paint me as a failure, as a work of art
Canvas and dagger
I'm tracking marks
Line it up and overdose in the dark

I just thought you could benefit from information
This world doesn't care for another junkie's gut to fill

Reality does not bring joy
I'm coping with the things I can't avoid
Can't get clean
Dance with me
Spin in grief
Until we are set free
Spinning freely
